Reveal or Indicate objects in Outliner and Object path

Right now on Object properties exist Name, eg. "Sphere" (on mockup I changed to the Object path , to bether show the object location).

  • Object path is the location in outliner, eg. Collection 2/Collection 2 1/Cube/Cube.001/
  • If Object path is long then user can open special panel as Object path (down partof mockup)
  • Then this panel can work like Object explorer - it's proposition for the Make Group or Make Component in relation to discuss Proposed Feature: Add 'Make Group' option for collections
  • In panel can around names can be icons related to objects like on outliner

(maybe is candidate for add-on: not sure we can have own panels via API)

In Log in can be loged the Object path as ptional and default no only standard as always after click:

bpy.ops.outliner.item_activate(extend=False, deselect_all=True)
bpy.ops.outliner.item_path("Collection 2/Collection 2 1/Cube/Cube.001/")

Reveal or Indicate objects in Outliner can be done by clicking obejct on viewport, and:

  • Push Num.
  • RMB in contex menu Reveal or Indicate objects in Outliner
  • Can be shortcuts like: Ctr+R (bether Shift+R), Shift+I

(now it's working to show object and focus after selected on outliner)
